Hi, doubt about Qt

[mentalthink]

Hi speaking whit a teacher of electronic, of 10 ago, he comment about Qt, what can compile for symbian, and the new O.S for mobiles devices, the first excuse-me about I go to tell, because I´m not programmer and perhaps what I will to say is a folish

Can be Glbasic, merged whit Qt, how in example the 2D box library, an then can compile for this devices?¿, again sorry if this is impossible or very hard to do, how I comment I don´t have too much kwoledges about programming.

Best regards,
Iván J.

Well, having read what you've said I've gone and looked at QT for the first time in many years.  I see they've come a long way with it.  Back when I used it, it was a simple cross-platform GUI library.

If you are asking if QT can be used in GLBasic then the answer would be only if you can turn QT into a library and write your own wrapper for it.  If, however, you are asking that Kitty makes QT a permanent part of GLBasic I think the answer will be no.  Especially as I see that one thing hasn't changed -- their ridiculous commercial license pricing.  Either way, writing a wrapper for it or merged it into GLBasic isn't going to make your programs suddenly work on Symbian devices.  It would require a LOT of work on Kitty's part to make GLBasic compile for Symbian, assuming it was even possible.  Sorry.

HI Hatonastick, thanks for your quick reply, yes I was supossed will be too much work, excuseme for my ignornce how I saied I don´t have too much idea about programming, own I looked some libraries ported to Glbasic, through libraries, I don´t really know how difficult is make something like this, I think could be very complex.

Thanks Hatonastick.

Best regards ,

you would have to write a wrapper. Qt is nice, but the bad thing is that it's C++ and has lots of its own types and classes you must use. Also the MOC-compiler is a beast.

HI Kitty, thanks for reply, well I don´t have enough kwoledges for make a wrapper, for this my question, I´m not a programmer.

Well Gernnot, another question, is the same, I read what google is making a Basic for android called "Simple", can be possible make something whit GLbasic?¿, I read some post the comment if Glbasic can compile for android, and thew answer is not, because is java, but Simple is a Basic. Excuse me, perhaps I saying some lazzy thing or i very complex to made this, but I think if GLbasic can compile to Android, making some thing,a wraper a library, whit Simple, don´t say java, will can be GLbasic quasy an standard for programming mobile devices. (I think)

Best Regards,

There is an SDK (NDK) for Windows now. I have the link and I will see if I can get stuff compiled. It would be interesting, yes.

Thanks Kitty, how  saied I don´t know if is a huge work!!!.

Another question and this I think can you result atractive, but i don´t know if can be possible to make,

FJ and another people comment to make glbasic what compile for Android, a few weeks ago, and your answers was not, becasue Glbasic not is Java,  I read, google stay developing, I think can be use yet, a basic lenguaje for programming android, is free (if not rebember bad), and I don´t kwon if GLbasic can be used/mixing/ or make something, what whit this Basic is called "simple", gl basic take advantage of this lenguage and use for compile for Android.
